SocketException: Connection aborted by peer: socket write error

[Naresh Bhatia]

I am getting a SocketException when my client tries to send a very large message
(app 2MB) to a servlet running on the WL 6.1 server. Does anyone know what the
problem might be? Smaller messages work just fine.

Below is the web access log that shows 2 short messages posting to the server
without any problems. But the 3rd large message, which is sent after about 2.5
minutes, generates the SocketException because the server has closed the connection.

200 389

I have tried varying bunch of parameters on the WL server such as MaxPostSize,
MaxPostTimeSecs, PostTimeoutSecs, KeepAliveEnabled, KeepAliveSecs, etc. But no
luck so far. The exception trace is shown below. Any help would be much appreciated.
